Bangladesh is now becoming the second Pakistan. Earlier Pakistan and China were a threat to India, but now Bangladesh has also stood in the same queue. The government will realize this in time, otherwise the fundamentalist government there will leave no stone unturned to create problems for us. Whenever Bangladesh Nationalist Party formed the government in Bangladesh, the situation remained difficult for India. Now the government there has openly come out in support of China and Pakistan and on some pretext or the other, spits fire against India.
While India was still searching for a solution to this threat, Saudi Arabia's move forward on the path shown by Pakistan is increasing the concern. In such a situation, now India should also make a military agreement with Afghanistan so that it becomes easier to put the last nail in the coffin of Pakistan. Besides, our defense relations and diplomatic relations with Myanmar will have to be further strengthened so that Bangladesh can also be taught a lesson if needed. UAE will have to be strengthened militarily so that Saudi Arabia can never raise its head in support of Pakistan. So that the thorn can be removed with a fork when needed.
Our soldiers sacrificed their lives to liberate Bangladesh. Every child of Bangladesh has been believing this. It is because of this favor that Sheikh Hasina's father Sheikh Mujibur Rahman never took any step against India nor did any anti-India activities flourish during Sheikh Hasina's tenure as Prime Minister. During Sheikh Hasina's tenure as Prime Minister, not only did trade between the two countries increase, but Bangladesh also became economically stronger. Not only this, the pulses of China, America and Pakistan never worked there, but when Bangladesh Nationalist Party chief Khaleda Zia was in power, problems arose for India there.
Now her son Tariq Rehman is in power, yet he is following the path shown by his mother. Now, not only is Pakistan gaining a foothold there, but the infiltration of China and America is also increasing at strategically important places for India. Turkey is also going to give him lethal weapons. It is obvious that these preparations are being done at the behest of Pakistan and China. It is feared that Bangladesh may also be a part of Islamic NATO. If this happens, more problems will increase for India. In such a situation, there is a need to strengthen our relations with Myanmar to cut off Bangladesh.
There is tension between Bangladesh and Myanmar over the Rohingya refugee crisis. Bangladesh Army is currently troubled by rebel groups. We have to help him so that if Bangladesh creates trouble for us, Myanmar stands shoulder to shoulder with us. At the same time, there is a need to strengthen Afghanistan from strategic point of view so that whenever Pakistan raises its head, it becomes easier to crush it. The Taliban government can make its airbases available to us if needed. Pakistan never wanted peace in Afghanistan, whereas India has always been in favor of peace there. Also contributing to its development. The enemy of both the countries is the same.
If we talk about Saudi Arabia, then it is not right for us from business point of view. This decision of Saudi Arabia is also against us from a strategic point of view. In such a situation, pressure will have to be put on the rulers there that their action is anti-India and hence they should reconsider it. If even after this the misunderstandings between Pakistan and Saudi Arabia continue, then we should make our agreement with UAE the same as between Pakistan and Saudi Arabia.
The enmity between Saudi and UAE is not hidden from anyone. If we make a similar agreement with Saudi Arabia's rival country, diplomatic pressure will definitely increase. The rulers of Saudi Arabia know that if India compromises, it will be successful, whereas its agreement with Pakistan will not last long. Because the nature of Pakistan is to do the work and forget it.
Now it remains to be seen when the Government of Pakistan makes public the initiative of military agreement with Bangladesh. However, it is trying to make its agreement like NATO so that an attack on one country is considered an attack on both the countries. The government of Bangladesh is still examining this agreement reached secretly, but if the Prime Minister there makes such an agreement, then it should be assumed that he has done so keeping India in mind and has shot himself in the foot.
